Just stay away from the artificial sweeteners. They are also shown to cause insulin spikes similar to sugar, and in turn they are no better.

They don't cause insulin spikes to nearly the same degree. Their insulin spikes are much smaller, almost negligible.
What? I was on keto for months and consumed copious amounts of these. No spike for MONTHS on end. Does your statement come with qualifiers or is that just straight up misinformation?
There's a ton of BS out there on artificial sweeteners, so much so they are some of the most studied food supplements on the planet... but it doesn't stop the BS from spreading
So no sugar and no sweeteners. What's left?
Salt and fat!
